Red bell pepperUse the same weight, deseed and chop; it gives colour with little heat. Add green chilli separately if you want pungency.
Fresh green chilliUse the same weight; heat is similar but the colour will be green rather than red.
Red chilli pasteUse 70% of the weight and stir in earlier. Adjust salt and heat carefully.
